All in a days work
With thousands of people riding the subway each day and hundreds of stations in the system, there are likely millions of stories to be told.
One particular subway station the Fort Hamilton Parkway stop on the N train was the backdrop for two incidents on the opposite ends of the spectrum, one devastating and one heartwarming.
On January 3, two transit officers were shot, but not seriously injured, by a passenger on the Manhattan-bound N train as it pulled into the Fort Hamilton Parkway station. The gunman killed by one of the officers during the struggle, and his body fell half on the platform and half on the train.
